    malt - A creamy, light-colored milkshake is served in a disposable cup with a plastic lid and a straw. The cup is placed on a wooden surface, possibly a table or bench, with a background of horizontal wooden slats. Part of a person's leg and shoe are visible at the bottom of the image, indicating a casual dining setting.

    I walked in feeling like a champ. My head was over heels and most of all, my spirit was high. Today was a new beginning. I was going to order Mr. Freeze and finally redeem this place. I walked in, greeted by a much more friendly worker. I felt cared for, he cared for my order. My joy ecstatic lasted long not. After ordering my vanilla malt weeks later, I expected a change in creation. Apparently I was proven wrong. I sit, waiting over 7 minutes in the empty store, only awaiting my malt. Others walked in, ordering and receiving their food/drinks, proclaiming how magnificent it was. I however was not as blessed. I finally get my malt, 10 minutes after ordering time and take a sip. The blended ice cream, milk, and malt rushed through my throat and into my stomach. Moments after alerting my taste buds, my joy destroyed. This malt stray so far from a normal one that I couldn't accept it. I asked about it, questioning the integrity and authenticity of it, when I was met to the conclusion, this malt was 2 scoops malt over. I am disappointed. I wanted to believe that this place could redeem itself in my eyes. I'm sorry, Mr. Freeze, but Mark my words. November 1st I will return for my final review. That date mark the final reckoning of... ..Mr. Freeze. This is FrunkyFrys, signing off.

    Its an Ice cream shop in Marengo that is nice. Really like an old fashioned ice cream shop in a typical small town. Worth the visit.

    My friend, partner and I ended up going here because the restaurant we started with was closed…read more When we arrived my expectations were high but I shouldn't have gone in with any. There were only two people working the bartender and a waitress. We waited like 5 minutes of not longer to get a greeting . It took like 5 more minutes to get seated. We grabbed menus to get an idea of what we might want to eat. I went into the restaurant part looking for an employee. She was wiping down empty tables saw me but never acknowledged my presence. The bartender saw us standing waiting to be seated and also didn't acknowledge us. I didn't understand why it took so long to get seated there were only 3 people at a table and the rest of the restaurant was empty. There were a few people at the bar. When we finally got seated the waitress asked if the table was dirty we said yes but she didn't wipe it or anything. She was saying that she had like 35 boys come in to eat and messed up the whole other side of the restaurant. She got us our drinks and then asked if we were ready to order. We said Please give us a few minutes to decide. When she took our order she was nice. When we got our food my friend ordered the Niko burger the bacon was rubbery and not even half cooked. She poured A1 sauce on the side and it was very watery it wasn't thick like normal A1 sauce should be. My partner ordered chicken fingers the meat inside was good and had the crisp on the outside, I ordered an Italian beef sandwich it was good but only had meat on half the sandwich and didn't melt in your mouth. I was only given a very small 2 tablespoons side of au jus. The waitress got us our refills but wasn't attentive like I would expect considering we were the only people in the restaurant. Is it a place I would go back to? Probably not. I was disappointed considering it was downtown Marengo. The ambience was wilderness and forest themed the restaurant was clean but the women's bathroom was not.

    Ok so management has changed since my last review. Maybe I'm in a different mood, or being picky…read morebut I did notice some differences. I ordered the Niko burger same as last time although the menu has changed some. Overall, still a decent place to catch a bite and nothing I'm noting would stop me from coming back. You know I consider myself a hamburger critic extraordinaire, so I did notice a different taste, and thickness in the burger, and that's probably where the one less star came from. However it was cooked the way I ordered it, I just can't imagine wanting it medium rare. The toppings were all very fresh and good. The bacon sometimes on a burger in restaurants is awful, but this was nice, freshly cooked. The bbq sauce I had him put on the side was ok but I just won't get it next time at all. It was not nice to the tastebuds. The onion rings and fries were good, especially the onion rings. Fries were usual "seasoned" that you often get in restaurants. Not my fave but usual. It was served fresh and hot, so good on that. Even the pickles were fresh and good. Gone was the coleslaw but that's ok by me. Unnecessary side imo. The house wine I got this time instead of beer was a Sauvignon Blanc, and was a good buy, good taste for $6 a glass. The prices overall were reasonable for the food I got. Atmosphere was the same. Lunch crowd started to roll in. The service was fine and the owner? Manager? Maybe both, introduced himself and checked on me to be sure everything was to my liking. Friendly guy but introduce yourself first and let people tell you their name after that if they chose to share.

Our Thursday meal was the AYCE broasted chicken! Chloe was our server and she was exceptional! The food was equally excellent! They start you off with soup or salad. We had the soup, me with the loaded potato soup and my wife with the chicken noodle! We shared with one another and all I can say is OMG!!! Maybe the best soups in McHenry County! Then for the main course: 4 chicken pieces (breast, wing, drumstick and thigh) that were cooked to perfection, slaw (just the way I like it-- slightly creamy without out too much mayo flavor, which I dislike), and a side. We had green beans and a baked potato. The potato was baked perfectly and the green beans were generously heaped on the plate. Again, they were substantial enough that we shared them and both enjoyed both sides! Once you're ready, you can order more chicken and specify the pieces that you want. We shared one more chicken breast because the meal was amazing and filling! Prices were super reasonable!!!!!! We'll be back again for the Thursday special but also want to try the other daily specials and the wood fired pizza! It looked wonderful! My only complaint is that Cafe 20 is not on the eastern half of the county where we live! Oh well!! It is surprisingly easy to get to Marengo! Congratulations, Cafe 20! You're 5-stars with me!!!

There are so many fun happenings taking place now at Hart's: paint and sips, speed dating, all types fun sporting contests, holiday theme meals, etc, and the new owners are always present. If you have little kids, be sure to take them around holidays; the decor is out of this world. Christmas time was insanely fun, inside and out, but even now for Easter, you will not be disappointed. There are some new menu items too. I love the new tacos, chicken tinga is my favorite, but people rave about the birria tacos as well. Follow their specials for great deals too, for example, Mondays Kids Eat Free with an adult meal, on Thursdays they sell their Lou Burger with fries for $12 (I think) and Fridays are $10 apps.

If bad service can take away stars, well then good service can add stars. The food was way better than I expected and the vibe was chill. I haven't seen a jukebox in years, but this one was digital and the guy that was using it had a pretty good selection going. The cheese pizza with mushrooms I ordered had a good flavor. Enough to come back and eat another one some day in the near future. The matcha lemonade was nice and refreshing with a kick of lemon. I had to add a little simple syrup to sweeten it up a bit. Last, the fried dough bites were sweet and buttery. Not a big fan of chocolate, so they were good without the sauce. Service was exceptional. Juanita made us feel very much welcomed and at home. This made for a happy day and a 5 star worthy experience.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is pretty open bright and nice. After some chat and hearing that the fish fry is popular, I thought ok, I'll give it a try. I haven't had a fish fry in years. I had the three piece cod, battered and fried, with side choice of fries. It also came with a roll and coleslaw. You can also get Walleye, or all-you-can-eat for a few more bucks. Coleslaw is not my favorite thing but I thought I'd try it. It was kind of tart and vinegary. Still not a fan so I left that alone. The fish was the star of the show of course and was pretty great, I have to say. Cooked so the fish was tender and flaky inside a crispy crust. The fries were fries, and I took most of those and the role home. The pretzel roll would be for a little sandwich later. All in all for the price a surprisingly decent meal. I have been kinda disappointed in restaurants lately but this was just as you'd wish; tasty, a decent price and the servers were great.
